cIerK IN the water department died
suddenly of heart disease Thursday
Just as he had entered his Office. The
deceased had been a member of the I.
y. .. f. for almost fifty years. and it is
believed that his death was largely
caused by the excitement incident to
the meeting of the Grand Lodge of the
State that day in Wilmington.

A PROBABLY FATAL ALTERCAT1oN
Isaiah Beach, a wealthy farmer, liv-
ing near Delmar, and Robert Morris
negro, became involved in an alter.
cation Sunday, over the ownership of n
dog which Beach accused Morris of
stealing. The former could not stand
the impudence of his colored adversary
and dealt him savage blow in the
face, whereupOn Morris drew a large
knife and stabbed Beach in the stom-
ach, making cash about eight inches
long from which his intestines protrud-
ed. A messenger was dispatched to
Laurel for medical assistance. The
wounded man is lying in a precarious
condition with little chances for his
recovery. Morris is under arrest.
But if the low and deep mutterings
that come from Milford in particular.
and from all the friends of cleanliness
and temperance in general, the grant
ing of license to the Lowerv "bOys'
at Milford will do more for constitu-
tional reform than the 'e1gth of the
term of court in Kent. Mr.. Bates said
the day after the late election that the
meddling of the saloon in politics
had to be stopped. Judges Grub and
Paynter Overruled Chief Justice Come
gys in granting the license. Some one
has said that the remOnstrance against
/ the LOwery's had been inspired bv
politics. That the Causeys had made
war on the hotel because it had been
/ the headquarters of their Democratic
opponents. But that is not RATIONAL

recently run over by a heavy wagon
and had lis right leg crushed. The
father knew that the leg must come
off, and after vanity trying to get a
surgeon, determined to perform the
operation himself. He had no in
strument, with the exception of a
razor and small meat saw, but with
these he took of the leg neatly, and
the boy recovered from the shock
and is doing well. Surgeons say
that the job was as successful as any
one could ask.

STAND BY MARIETTA.

A mans character is formed for
evil or good. He grows strong in re-
sisting the bad ANA in cultivating
the good, or grows weak in maintain
ing the latter to the fostering OF the
former. Selfshnesss becomes great
and overpowering to the extent Of
its indulgence. 70 solidify character
against this grasping passion in tax
ing in like sponge and never turn
ing loose only under the most press
ing circumstances, it is necessary to
practice the ennobling virtue Of liber-
atty from early manhood. To give
growth to selfshness is to allow it to
get.such a hold upon us that, like
the octupus you no sooner sever one
arm of environment, than another
evil desire of the heart clutches you
and you hold on to the prey. Those
citizens of Marietta or Of any town,
who are the most liberal in their
business and in their private and
public gifts and charities, whether in
small or large sums, are those whose
minds have been broadened under
the Sayior's injunction, at is more
blessed to give than to receive" The
most enterprising and public spirited
citizens are those who act upon the
principle of bestowing good upon
others whether it Immediately results
10 good to themselves or not. 10
build up town and push it forward
in all its material, moral and mental
greatness, requires not only the eff
forts OF more than a half dozen citi-
zens, but the united, harmonious Co
operation Of her entire citizenship.
This We haven got as completely in
Mari eta as we need, although cred
table to some extent We need II
more determined and generous spirit
IN patronlzlng home and home indus
tries and business enterprises than is
exercised by some, whose selfshness
prompts them to 90 to atlanta or
elsewhere to buy things procurable
at home, if onl y few cents is saved
thereby, thus enriching other places
and people to the impoycrishment Of
home merchants, mechanics and
friends. This is suicidal to the best
interests Of the town and is more dis
astrous in its permanent results than
a boom OF prosperity can counter
act in years. If you want to boom
your town and see it grow don t pull
down its volume of business by divis-
ION OF patronage, pouring your dol
lars into the Golfers Of atlanta mer
chants and establishments who pay
their taxes to, and work for Atlanta
glory and greatness, but never on,
cents worth for Marietta. What il
an article should cost few cent,
more at horne than you can get it FOL
elsewhere, you make your money
here and can afford to spend it among
those whom, il they were to 90 else
where, as you do, would be practical
ly to kill the business Of the town
Kill the spirit of selGshness that pre-
dominates in your acts, and stand by
Marietta and Marietta people an,
You will do great work for your
self and town.
